I was waiting for this feature to be added. At last this is already done. There are a lot of stations to choose from and I am very much alive now while posting. Thanks a lot for this addition.

Sweet. I'm gonna have to play with that later and find some fun stuff to listen to. Great addition. Is there any particular guidelines for stations that are appropriate to add? I notice that stations can be reported...

Aww, and I was looking forward to using this too :(
Let me know when you find an alternative, since it seems to be a seriously cool feature.
Heck, stuff like that should hopefully help attract more members!
Also if I think of any other suggestions, i'll be sure to let you know.

Do you need to pay some kind of royalty to the internet radio you are connected to? I just wanted to know, that's all.
I wish this problem could be solve soon for this feature is really a nice one. I'm always playing my MP3 while doing some internet surfing but I'm kinda tired listening to my old music. So this radio streaming would be very nice.

Ouch, I just listened to it a few days a go but now its gone. It was so short live but I do hope it will com back again. I could remember the name of the internet radio which I think is "DI - FM". You could go there website and listen there but its much better if its connected in here.

my technical team didn't give me an exact reason for why it was removed other than license issues. I'm waiting to hear back from them as to what kind of alternative they've found to replace this with.

I am looking forward to hearing more, and I certainly hope an alternative can be found!
I know there's a bunch of different programs out there, so they should hopefully find one of them to be agreeable.
And if not, maybe we could just link people to stations we like or something?

From what I understand about license issue is that it needs an approval from the radio station for the music to be played here. Is that correct?
Radio stations are meant to be free to listen to right. The source of income for radio stations is from the advertisements, if my knowledge is correct.

I think the music aspect of it is free, the advertisement and special programs are what actually pays for evrything. For persons who have their own music they would just submit it to the various radio stations and they choose whether or not to play it.

That is exactly what I have been thinking all along. Our forum doesn't need to pay anything for the companies who advertise in that radio station are the ones paying. We are even advertising them for free if we are going to use their services.

That's a bummer! :)
I thought were all the way with the new add on. Why is that? What licenses are they looking for? I hope it'll get settled soon. :)

License problems are now cleared up gang. The radio streamer is back on and you should all have access to it.

Thanks a lot for the notice. I have been waiting for this to be activated and now its working. I have a problem with buffering because it keeps on buffering. What do you recommend for me to do in order to avoid constant buffer?

Its back, bring out the poisons! :alc:
Good to have it back, I am playing them right now and I don't have to go to their site just to listen to their music. At least when I listen to the radio streaming here, there are no cuts or advertisements. Just pure continuous great music.

Listening to DI FM - Goa-Psy Trance right now!
This station is awesome, and i'm sure the others are too.
Thanks a billion for adding it back in! Also, are we allowed to suggest other stations to be added?
Either way, I am VERY happy!
